Wow, Resistance 3 is going to be a huge flop! I thought for sure it would appear in the chart this week. It's sad that a supposed "Triple A" franchise is going to be outsold in it's debut week by a new IP (Dead Island)...at least in the Americas. ...

I've noticed a trend with Sony's first party exclusives on PS3. With the exception of Uncharted 2, the sequels have almost all done worse than their predecessors in overall sales.
I don't want to grab the numbers but off the top of my head I'm pretty sure sales for the following sequels lag behind the previous iteration:
Killzone 2 > Killzone 3
Resistance: FOM > Resistance 2
LBP 1...
